Sobeys Rockyview Distribution Center
Service
Rockyview, AB
Crossdock Refrigeration System
Sobeys Inc. is Canada’s second largest food retailer with approximately 1,500 stores under retail banners that include Sobeys, Safeway, IGA, Foodland and Thrifty Foods. Startec was contracted to install a new Crossdock Refrigeration system in Sobeys newly acquired Rockyview Distribution Center. Despite a short timeline, Startec executed the project flawlessly and completed the project on time and budget.
HELPING CLIENTS SAVE MONEY
By offering alternative design, product, and supplier ideas for consideration we were able to save Sobeys 15% in costs upfront and during the procurement portion of the project. The redesigning of the ducting system for the evaporators also provided substantial savings.
This project was not only exciting and fast paced, but we gained the trust of Sobeys during the process which strengthened our relationship.
